Evaluating modern printing inks: the behaviour of charged particles in concentrated nonaqueous colloidal dispersions

这项建议的合作伙伴组织澳大利亚研究实验室(RLA)是一家总部位于阿德莱德的小型公司，处于现代彩色打印技术的前沿。RLA向几家主要的国际彩色打印机制造商提供液体碳粉，用于液体浸泡显影过程。这项建议将开发一种用于表征液体油墨性能的仪器，使RLA的产品能够持续研发改进。此外，该仪器可以商业化，并在全球范围内向食品、制药、化妆品和表面涂料等行业中处理浓缩胶体分散体的公司进行营销。

The Partner Organisation in this proposal, Research Laboratories of Australia (RLA) is a small Adelaide-based company which is at the forefront of modern colour printing technology. RLA provides liquid toners to several major international manufacturers of colour printers for use in liquid immersion development processes. This proposal will develop an instrument for characterising the properties of liquid inks, enabling continual R&D improvement of RLA's products. Furthermore, the instrument can be commercialised and marketed worldwide to companies dealing with concentrated colloidal dispersions in a wide range of industries including foods, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics and surface coatings.
